380. The Assassination Incident on the New Year's Day(1/2)
In the late twelfth lunar month, my family began to prepare New Year's goods, and we gradually received New Year's goods from the north and south.
In the north, Qiu Jing bought some bacon and the like. He still remembered that Su Liang said that he liked to eat bacon from a shop in Nanping City, so he asked Qiu Cong to buy a lot and send it to the capital.
In the south, Lin Xin prepared one New Year's goods for the Lin family and one for the Su family, mostly specialties from the south. In addition to the New Year's goods, there were also a lot of gifts prepared by Nian Jincheng, Lin Xin and others for Gu Xiaonuan.
Nian Jincheng and Lin Xie had previously made a bet on whether Su Liang was pregnant with a son or a daughter, agreeing that whoever guessed wrong would lose the chance to be the child's godfather. However, it turned out that Lin Xie, who was the first to say that he wanted to be Gu Xiaonuan's godfather, guessed wrong.
But he didn't recognize it. The letter he received completely claimed that he was Gu Xiaonuan's godfather, and he looked like he wished he could grow wings and fly to the capital to hug Gu Xiaonuan.
Lin Xian didn't mention Yuan Ying, but they had already tacitly agreed on some things. If there was any news, Su Liang would definitely tell him. If he didn't say anything, there would be no news, and it would be useless to ask.
Su Liang also asked Song Qi to prepare new year's goods and send them to Xuanbei City and Kasyapa City at the beginning of the month.
The couplets were written by Gu Ling, who also cut a lot of window grilles.
On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, Cen Man and Lao Mu looked at their children, while Su Liang and Gu Ling posted couplets together.
After confinement, Su Liang wanted to move, but she couldn't do strenuous exercise for the time being, so she found something to do.
Gu Ling applied the paste, Gu Ling was responsible for pasting it, and Su Liang was responsible for handing the couplets to Gu Ling and checking whether they were pasted correctly.
"Is Xiaonuan crying?" Gu Ling suddenly stopped what he was doing and asked Su Liang.
Su Liang listened carefully and shook her head, "No. I think you have separation anxiety, Master. You have been thinking about your child since you were separated, and you always feel that others can't take care of you."
"Is there still such a disease?" Gu Ling frowned.
"Yes, it's a psychological problem." Su Liang said, "Just get used to it. We can't stare at her all the time."
"But Xiao Nuan is really crying." Gu Ling said.
Su Liang looked helpless, "Master, what are you..." Halfway through her words, she also heard cries coming from the direction of Yuanming Pavilion. Her baby's cries were so penetrating.
Then Lao Mu's voice called her, "Xiao Liang! Nuan Nuan is hungry!"
Su Liang immediately put down the couplet in his hand and rushed over.
Gu Ling also followed, and the couplet that had not been firmly attached was blown up by the wind, and it hit Qi Yan's face who just wanted to come over to help...
Su Liang held Gu Xiaonuan while breastfeeding, and even complained about how long she had just finished breastfeeding.
As a result, Gu Xiaonuan refused to eat, giggled, and danced in Su Liang's arms. Her bright black eyes were full of smiles, as if she was saying it was fun.
Su Liang handed Gu Xiaonuan to Gu Ling, "Your daughter is a little liar."
Gu Ling smiled tenderly and shook her daughter in her arms, "Are you so smart?"
Su Liang: ...It seems that I can only rely on her to spank children in the future, when necessary.
Su Liang's mentality is now different from when she first gave birth to the child. It may be that Gu Ling's father is too kind, which makes Su Liang feel that she can only be a strict mother and control her rationality.
But just now Su Liang heard that Gu Xiaonuan was hungry and rushed back to Yuanming Pavilion, which showed that her rationality was also very limited.
After playing with Gu Xiaonuan for a while, Gu Ling and Su Liang went to post couplets, but as soon as they left Yuanming Pavilion, they heard Gu Xiaonuan crying again.
Su Liang complained, "Master, your prenatal education seems to be useless. I remember you told her the story of the boy who cried wolf."
Gu Ling chuckled, "If she could understand and remember then, I would be scared." Could she be another time traveler?
After several verifications that day, Su Liang and Gu Ling discovered that as long as one of them was around Gu Xiaonuan, she would stop making noises. When both of them were away, she would howl from time to time.
But Su Liang wanted to post couplets, and Gu Ling wanted to post couplets with Su Liang, so it became a family of three to post couplets. Gu Ling held Gu Xiaonuan in one hand and posted couplets in the other. Although it was a little slower, it was a lot of fun.
Gu Xiaonuan was wrapped up tightly, but she couldn't hide her excitement outside, and she couldn't stop laughing.
After posting the couplets, Gu Xiaonuan fell asleep and was put in the cradle by Gu Ling.
Gu Ling got interested, spread paper, polished ink, and drew a picture. The picture showed a warm scene of a family of three posting couplets, but it was from his back because he could not see his expression and had never painted his own portrait.
.
Gu Xiaonuan likes red things very much. Gu Ling knitted them by herself. The Chinese knot hanging on the bedside has been moved to the cradle.
…
Twenty-nine, steamed buns.
Gu Ling and Su Liang hadn't cooked together for a long time. While Gu Xiaonuan was asleep, they were busy making steamed buns in the kitchen.
Gu Ling kneaded the dough and got a little flour on his face. When Su Liang saw it, he came closer to help him wipe it. As a result, Gu Ling hugged him and lowered his head to kiss her.
Both of them had abstained from sex for a long time. Their lips and tongues were entangled, and they were both moved by emotion. They didn't even hear the water in the pot boil.
In the end, it was Gu Xiaonuan's cry that separated the two.
Su Liang's face turned red, "Master, it's been more than half a month since my confinement. I'm clean, so I should be fine. How about we tonight..."
Gu Ling's eyes moved down and landed on the lower part of Su Liang's neck, "I really want to."
"No buts. It's settled happily." Su Liang took the apron, washed her hands, and went to coax the child.
Gu Ling breathed a long sigh of relief and turned around to notice the boiling water in the pot. He couldn't bear it anymore if he didn't eat meat.
When Su Liang entered the kitchen again, the steamed buns had already been put on the steamer. Gu Ling had a good habit of cleaning up while cooking, so the kitchen was still clean when it was done.
When the steamed buns came out of the pot, Su Liang saw something strange in shape inside. If he looked closely, he saw that it was actually a bamboo shoot...
"Is this specially made for Gu Xiaonuan?" Su Liang felt that when Gu Xiaonuan grew up, she must tell her that her dear father once thought of naming her Xiaosun.
"Made for you. Bamboo shoots and bean buns." Gu Ling opened it, revealing the filling inside. He didn't add any sugar to the bean buns, but used steamed and mashed sweet potatoes to sweeten them.
Su Liang took a bite. It was hot, sweet and delicious. It was very delicious.
…
It was agreed that they would eat meat that night, but when the love got stronger, Gu Xiaonuan howled so loudly that Gu Ling almost collapsed. Maybe he slept too much during the day, but Gu Xiaonuan was so energetic that night that he didn't sleep until midnight, and Su Liang was also very tired.
, her and Gu Ling's "exercise plan" can only be postponed temporarily.
When she got up the next day, Gu Ling decided that in order to let her daughter sleep well at night, she should not let her sleep too much during the day. She should develop a regular daily routine from an early age in order to maintain good health.
So, on New Year's Eve, Gu Ling and Su Liang played with Gu Xiaonuan for a long time very seriously.
It started to snow again in the evening. Gu Ling's family of three had a New Year's Eve dinner with people in the house. Nangong Qian and Qiu Yue cooked it. Cen Man also cooked two dishes. Gu Ling cooked a fish. Because Su Liang
When I was pregnant, I couldn't eat fish for a long time. I felt nauseated when I smelled it. Today I wanted to eat it.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, Gu Ling and Su Liang gave their daughter a bath first, and then took turns accompanying her daughter while the other person took a bath.
When Su Liang returned to the bedroom after bathing in the study, she saw Gu Ling's deep eyes as soon as she entered the door.
Then, both of them were waiting for Gu Xiaonuan to fall asleep quickly. Fortunately, their "plan" was successful. Gu Xiaonuan squinted his eyes after feeding, and fell asleep soon after.
Gu Ling put Gu Xiaonuan in the cradle, covered it with a light-blocking gauze curtain, turned around and pushed Su Liang down on the bed...
Gu Ling said that we should stay up tonight and not sleep.
Su Liang thinks it makes sense.
There is heavy snow outside the window, and the feeling of spring is strong inside the house.
…
One year old is eliminated amidst the sound of firecrackers.
Lao Mu put on new clothes early in the morning and ran to the door to set off firecrackers.
Not long after he fell asleep, Gu Ling was awakened by the sound of firecrackers coming from far away. He took the half-asleep Su Liang to do some "morning exercise", and then got up refreshed to go to his daughter.
It's time to change diapers.
Su Liang was so tired that she slept for a long time, during which time Gu Xiaonuan had already received several New Year's money.
When Su Liang got up, took a shower and put on new clothes for the New Year, she went downstairs and saw Gu Ling holding Gu Xiaonuan and looking at the snow outside the window.
The father and daughter both looked back at Su Liang. They had two very similar faces, one large and one small, one as beautiful as a banished immortal and the other as beautiful as an elf, which made people sigh at the Creator's preference.
Gu Xiaonuan waved her little hand at Su Liang, which was a sign that she liked someone.
Su Liang walked over with a smile. The family of three were wearing parent-child clothes, and the patterns on the collar and sleeves were all the same.
Cen Man came to the door and saw this scene and thought it was so beautiful.
"New Year's greetings to Master." Su Liang bowed, and Cen Man gave her the "New Year's money" that she had prepared long ago with a smile on her face. It was not money, but one of her favorite hidden weapons.
Lao Mu came over with a large wooden box and mysteriously asked Su Liang to guess what was inside.
"I guess it's a piece of wood." Su Liang said.
Lao Mu was speechless, "Guess well."
Su Liang said he couldn't guess. Lao Mu is now keen on making some weird things with Gu Ling, many of which are beyond Su Liang's imagination.
However, the gift Lao Mu gave Su Liang this time was not this kind of gift, but something that Su Liang had described earlier, and Lao Mu made it.
He slowly opened the wooden box, revealing the Lucky Cat-shaped ornament inside, and then touched a mechanism behind the ornament. The Lucky Cat's hand began to wave towards Su Liang.
Su Liang thought it was amazing because the lucky cats in her previous life were all powered by batteries. She had only asked Lao Mu and Gu Ling if they could achieve what she described by simply using mechanisms, but she didn't expect Lao Mu to actually do it.
He came out. He did it behind Gu Ling's back. He did it by himself just to give Su Liang a surprise.
However, Lao Mu's aesthetics are a bit different from Gu Ling's. The cat head's expression is a bit yin and yang, but it looks quite funny, and Su Liang likes it very much.
"Thank you, Master. Master is so amazing." Su Liang hugged her and let Gu Xiaonuan touch the Lucky Cat's hands. Gu Xiaonuan laughed.
Su Liang declined the banquet in the palace on the grounds that she was just out of confinement and could not see the wind, and she knew it would be boring. The biggest pleasure for her and Gu Ling at the moment was to raise their children and do sports.
